ACE YOUR MEDICAL EXAMS

AVAILABLE NOW!

I have now published a book based on my experiences in performance psychology with doctors.

 

ACE YOUR MEDICAL EXAMS doesn’t ask you to do the impossible. It introduces you to the psychological strategies and techniques designed to cultivate peak performance and personal growth. What good performers in any field have in common is an ability to quickly move past the negative emotion of a failure and learn from the experience.

 

The book bridges the gap between research and practice by clearly illustrating essential concepts with case studies, anecdotes, and examples.

“… the clinical or viva voce exam, usually the stumbling block, is far closer to a sport or theatre performance than a test of knowledge…”
Professor John Watson AM
